Le Rouquet is in the picturesque
village of Castelnaud la Chapelle. The house was built over
200 years ago with the local honey coloured stone and inside
retains many of the old features including stone walls and
beams. The outside walls have roses, vines and
climbing plants growing on them which make a lovely sight
especially when they are in bloom. The two apartments have
been recently refurbished to a very high standard and
feature fully fitted kitchens, wooden and tiled floors and
new furnishings. Both apartments are light and airy with
all windows facing South and looking across the wooded
valley.
The apartments share access to
the gravelled garden and paved patio. The South facing
garden is a real sun trap being sheltered by a hedge but
there is shade if you need it from an apple tree and from
the covered area on the patio. The few flower beds are
filled with shrubs, roses and herbs. The garden is an ideal
place to enjoy the sun or in which to have a barbeque
(provided). Loungers are provided together with a table and
chairs.

Neither of the apartments are
suitable for very young children as the garden is not fully
enclosed and there are uneven stone steps in and around the
property however it is great for active children and young
teens as there is plenty to amuse and excite them in the area.
Both apartments are provided
with barbeques, the Balcony apartment one is kept on the
balcony and the Garden apartment one is kept under cover on
the patio.
There is a washing machine
located in the utility room for the use of the guests along
with an iron & ironing board.
It is possible to drive up the
narrow lane to the house to unload luggage etc. but it is not
possible to park the car outside the house. However
there are several parking areas within a short walk.
